Impact Fund 2026 – Melbourne

What could your giving achieve if you didn’t do it alone?

We invite our Victorian giving community to join this special event introducing the Impact Fund for 2026 – Australian Communities Foundation’s unique collective giving initiative. The Impact Fund makes it easier to back ambitious, community-led work by combining shared resources, shared learning, and thoughtful grantmaking.

Whether or not you’ve contributed through the Impact Fund before, this is an opportunity to explore amplifying your impact and giving with greater confidence. 

At this event, you’ll:

  • Learn about the Impact Fund’s refreshed vision and approach to funding lasting change through Catalytic and Agile granting streams
  • Meet the community advisory group guiding the Fund’s grantmaking
  • See how collective giving works in practice – and how you can participate in ways that suit your interests and capacity
  • Meet the Impact Fund 2026 Catalytic Grant partner and explore this year’s focus on climate solutions
  • Connect with other funders who are curious about, or already engaged in, collective giving.
